Third time is the charm? I had made a tea gown and was not pleased with the results. It hung like a sack (I had left out optional darts so it would be more comfortable and added space to accommodate the “girls”-not good ideas!) So after shunning it for a length of time, I re-did it. See post here.
I still wasn’t pleased with the results.
Costume College is having a Tea and since it is in MY hotel, I could justify wearing an “at home tea gown” but not with it looking so blah! The fit was better after the first renovation, but the piddley little scrap of lace just wasn’t breaking up all that print! So off it came.
I’m half way through this third incarnation and I hate it less.
More lace does seem to break things up a bit more and the cream color instead of the white doesn’t look so weird. I’m hoping the placement doesn’t look as crooked on me as it seems to on the table. I’ve not noticed that before…please let it only be in the picture! Wahhhhh! I don’t wanna do it again!
Upon looking at it again, the lace is not that crooked in real life. It is just the way it was laying on the table. Phew!
